“System, use up all my Fortune Points on cultivation. Help me break through the realm.”
Right after the recognition ceremony ended, Qin Xiao rushed back to his cultivation chamber and gave the order to the system.
[Understood, host!]
[Spent 280 Fortune Points, host has broken through to 2nd stage Innate Realm.]
[Spent 400 Fortune Points, host has broken through to 3rd stage Innate Realm.]
[Spent 500 Fortune Points, host has broken through to 4th stage Innate Realm.]
…
[Congratulations to the host for breaking through to late 8th stage Innate Realm!]
All 5,005 Fortune Points were consumed, and Qin Xiao had advanced to late 8th stage Innate Realm. Just another 175 points and he could step into the 9th stage.
It felt incredible. His hard cultivation over a month couldn’t compare at all to how fast the system advanced him. Truly, plundering Fortune Points was the king’s path.
Clenching his fists, Qin Xiao felt his entire body brimming with power, as though he could move mountains and overturn seas, even destroy the heavens and earth. The overwhelming strength made him almost intoxicated.
“System, how many Fortune Points are needed to break through to the Spiritual Power Realm?” Qin Xiao asked. With Ye Tian as his adopted son, 175 Fortune Points meant only 18 days of waiting. He wanted to know the cost of the next step.
[Breaking through to the Spiritual Power Realm requires 2,500 Fortune Points.]
“2,500 points? That’s acceptable. With Ye Tian supplying me 10 points a day, in about 8 months I’ll be able to break through. Then I can visit the prefectural city, take in a few more Children of Destiny as adopted sons, and begin my comfortable life.”
Qin Xiao’s eyes gleamed with anticipation.
But soon he grew annoyed. He had forgotten to save 50 points for searching new Children of Destiny. Without more under his control, the growth of his Fortune Points would remain limited.
…
“Husband, you’ve come out of seclusion!” Ye Suxin immediately approached when Qin Xiao exited the chamber, helping straighten his robes attentively. This chapter is updated first at g.com.
“Wife, were you waiting here just for me?” Qin Xiao asked as he embraced her slender waist. She wore a pure white dress, her skin like jade, her figure graceful, her aura ethereal and captivating.
“No, I just thought husband should be coming out soon, so I came to take a look,” Ye Suxin replied softly.
“Then, wife, did you miss me?” Qin Xiao smiled, his gaze fixed on her.
“Yes… I did,” Ye Suxin lowered her head shyly. Though already in her thirties, she still blushed as easily as a young maiden.
“Perfect. I missed you too. Let’s go exchange some cultivation insights.” Qin Xiao grinned, lifting her into his arms and heading toward the bedroom.
“Husband, not now, it’s still daytime. Let’s eat first and then… exchange later,” Ye Suxin said hurriedly, embarrassed.
… (30,000 words omitted) …
“Husband, you seem stronger again,” Ye Suxin whispered afterward, resting against his chest. She could clearly sense how much his strength had grown.
“Of course, it’s all thanks to you. Since marrying you, my cultivation speed has been soaring like never before,” Qin Xiao laughed.
“Don’t say such things!” Ye Suxin’s face reddened, and she didn’t pursue the matter further.
“Husband, perhaps you should find another younger sister for me.” Suddenly, Ye Suxin looked at him seriously.
In her eyes, Qin Xiao was considerate, gentle, and understanding—but he was too obsessed with cultivation, always dragging her along.
Now that his strength had surged, his stamina had become even greater. She couldn’t handle it alone, and she also needed time to care for Ye Tian. Another sister-wife would balance things better.
“Why are you suddenly suggesting I take another concubine?” Qin Xiao asked curiously.
“Husband, you’ve become stronger in that aspect. I can’t keep up. Plus, I want more time for Xiao Tian, so…” Ye Suxin lowered her head, embarrassed.
“So that’s the reason. Alright, I’ll keep an eye out. If there’s a suitable one, I’ll add another sister for you,” Qin Xiao thought for a moment before nodding.
How could he refuse such a thing?
The problem would be choosing the right candidate. After marrying Ye Suxin, his standards had risen unconsciously. Ordinary women no longer interested him. Concubines, yes—but carefully chosen.
…
Five days later.
“System, search for other Children of Destiny within a thousand kilometers.” Qin Xiao used the search function after saving up 50 Fortune Points. Read this novel at novelping . com for the best experience.
[Ding! System search complete. Within the range, no other Children of Destiny found.]
“What? None?” Qin Xiao panicked.
[Does the host think Children of Destiny grow like cabbages, everywhere? Meeting Ye Tian so early was already your ancestors blessing you with incense.]
Qin Xiao was left speechless. Couldn’t this system speak nicely for once? His 50 points wasted, his heart ached bitterly.
“Looks like I’ll have to move. Once I break through to the Spiritual Power Realm, I’ll go to the prefectural city to look. If not, I’ll search the commandery or even the state capital. I refuse to believe I won’t find more.”
Qin Xiao steeled his resolve.
…
Eighteen days later, he broke through to 9th stage Innate Realm.
Eight months later, in the Qin Family’s cultivation hall—
“System, add the points. I want to break through to the Spiritual Power Realm!”
After accumulating for more than eight months, he finally had over 2,500 Fortune Points. Qin Xiao immediately entered closed-door cultivation.
[Understood!]
As his points disappeared from the panel, an overwhelming aura erupted from his body. His Innate Realm true qi was completely transformed into spiritual power.
Blood and qi surged within him, his features rejuvenated until he looked only in his thirties, a dignified and imposing middle-aged man.
“Spiritual Power Realm… so powerful.” Qin Xiao felt his life essence undergo a massive leap, brimming with the strength to move mountains and overturn seas. Now, he could easily crush ten of his former selves. His power had increased more than tenfold.
Even his lifespan had skyrocketed. In this world, experts of the Spiritual Power Realm typically lived around 300 years.
That meant he had gained another 200 years of life. His vitality was abundant and overflowing.
